The Terrible Podcast – Wrapping Up The Raiders Game Episode

Season 3, Episode 21 of The Terrible Podcast is up and co-host David Todd I recap the Tuesday practice of the Pittsburgh Steelers that included linebacker James Harrison and Troy Polamalu both getting back to work. We explain why the Wednesday practice is extremely important for Harrison as the team heads into their bye week. How important are both of these players and will they make a difference upon their return? We discuss that as well as the recent reports that state the Steelers defense is too predictable.

We move on to wrap up the Steelers loss to the Oakland Raiders and note a few specific breakdowns defensively from an execution standpoint. The offense and special teams still have some blame in the Sunday loss and we look at the Steelers overall as a team moving forward. How important is a good running game and will Rashard Mendenhall help it once he returns? We discuss it.

We discuss the Monday night debacle that took place at the end of the game as well as a few other games that took place this past weekend before giving our picks for the upcoming Thursday night game.

What about playing more Press Zone? I know the steelers usually play a kind of 3 deep 3 short zone with the corners playing Deep and the short zones being mostly linebackers and a safety because you can blitz alot of diffrent people out of it but I wouldn’t mind seeing the corners bump short then release after 5 and watch the QB’s eyes

49ers do quite abit of that kind of coverage, it also helps against zone/cutback running because you have the corners on the edges staying low ready for tackles without having to close as much ground.

Sometimes you see if only done on 1 side aswell and either bring more ppl or play 3 deep as uposed to 2 deep if you’re doing it on both sides, I have seen that from the steelers before.
